Help relief efforts in the wake of Hurricane Harvey

From Catholic Charities USA:

With Washington in recess, our nation joins in prayer and solidarity with those impacted by Hurricane Harvey. While the threat continues, please pray for those still in danger and those doing the heroic work of helping those in need.

Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA), the official domestic relief agency of the Catholic Church, is working in conjunction with the local Catholic Charities agencies to assist families and individuals impacted by the hurricane.

Here is how you can help:

Pray: God of hope and mercy, we lift up to you all victims of Hurricane Harvey, and those responding with assistance and aid. Protect all who are in any form of danger; provide practical help to all those in need; strengthen the weary; console the grieving and heal the suffering; and bless those engaged in disaster relief efforts with safety and courage. Help all people of goodwill to respond with compassion and generous hearts. Amen.
